4:02 pm
several times until they finally agreed to disagree and they don't want the meeting to become an argument about it. so they moved on. following the moving the russian foreign minister said the president accepted vladimir putin's assurances that he didn't meddle in the election. white house officials said no, that's not the way it happened. so, today we heard from vladimir putin himself who said that he believes the president accepted at least in some way when he was saying. >> he asked questions, he was genuinely interested in details. as for as i could i answered him in detail. he asked me questions, i answered. i clarified. and i think you satisfied with my answers. >> he said i think he was satisfied but he's also going to have to say you you need asked the president to know what his

4:04 pm
convince president trump to stay in, he declined. she was dismayed by that. then, the u.s. pulling out of the climate accord in the final communiqué and an exercise of pointing fingers. it's as we take note of the decision of the usa to withdraw from the paris agreement. the leaders of the other g20 member state that the parasitic agreement is irreversible. we reaffirm our strong commitment to the paris agreement moving swiftly toward its full implementation. so, here's an area on which looks like the united states and the other 19 member nations of the g20 have agreed to disagree. the other 19 members are letting the white house know, they're not happy with what the president did. >> julie: there's also controversy over ivanka trump sitting in for the president during one of the g20 meetings. journalists are not allowed in there, and certainly certain members of his own cabinet are not, but his daughter was.

4:06 pm
interview with cbs's face the nation which will air tomorrow, she has are certain issues that she focuses on. when those things come up than that is where she is. that is what she likes to focus on. merkel whose host of the g20 g20 summit said the delegation themselves decide to the president not be present for meeting who will then take over and sit in the chair. that is something other delegations do also. it's very well know she works at the white house and is engaged in certain issues. so, it seems people at a problem with this for the people who saw the on twitter decided to make a comment about it. donald trump junior, her big brother got into a twitter were with a republican strategist on twitter, i'll leave it to folks at home to look up the tweets. it was a matter of controversy. again, the woman who put on this said, not a problem with her. >> and she does tend to complain a lot about trump.
